I'm looking at the fold form factor. I like the idea.

I want to know more. I've been considering the same. I feel like the whole "26" OS family has been super buggy, the lack of any real cohesive AI assistant is actually making me less efficient, and the recent pro headphones have been buggy, too. For me it's the Ultra watch replacement and iPad...

Presenting The Agentic Manifesto: a new model for the era of autonomy.

The old SDLC can't govern emergent AI. We need a new playbook. We call it the 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲 (ADLC).

Read the manifesto:

I analyzed a year of peer "thank you" notes, expecting fluff. I was completely wrong.

Over 90% weren't just compliments; they were solid, admissible evidence of high performance.

Next time you thank a colleague, don't just be nice. Be specific. Give them evidence they can use for their career.

Stop Chasing AI Productivity. Start Driving Real Impact. We’ve all seen it. An eager engineer, proud of their newfound AI prowess, triumphantly presents a pull request with thousands of lines of perfectly generated code.

Is your team's AI just creating "10x mediocrity?"

We're all chasing productivity, but it's a dangerous trap if you're solving the wrong problems. I wrote about how to shift from raw output to real impact.

Learnings aren't a thing.

You hear it in meetings, but "learning" is usually an uncountable noun, like "information" or "knowledge." We don't say "knowledges."

"Learnings" is jargon. Use clearer language like "lessons learned," "insights," or just "lessons."

Your communication will be stronger.
